Pirate's Cove

This is it. I renounce my Conservative Card. I’m so tired of Conservatives being the kind of people who would do this

(The Blaze) According to Wyoming’s Star-Tribune, on the non-university affiliated Facebook page UW Crushes, which has since been shut down, a post appeared last week that read:

“I want to hatef— Meg Lanker- so hard,” the Facebook post said. “That chick that runs her liberal mouth all the time and doesn’t care who knows it. I think its hot and it makes me angry. One night with me and shes gonna be a good Republican b—-.”

This controversial post Meg Lanker-Simons reported the post to university administrators and campus police, telling the Laramie Boomerang that as a rape survivor this is “one of the worst things someone can threaten.”

I mean, really, what the hell is the matter with you conservatives? The guy is probably a TEA Party member to boot…..um, oh, uh, wait

On Tuesday, though, it was revealed by University of Wyoming Police Department that they had cited Lanker-Simons herself for the threatening post. In a separate article, the Laramie Boomerang reported police obtained a warrant to search the student’s computer and found substantial evidence verifying that the offending Facebook post came from Lanker-Simons’ computer, while the computer was in her possession.”

That’s right, folks, another case of a Progressive ginning up an issue to make Conservatives look bad. So, obviously the University is going to hold sit ins decrying liberals intentionally creating false accusations designed to denigrate conservatives, right? They’ll hold teach ins regarding tolerance toward Conservatives and to not do things like Lanker-Simons did, right? Um, no

Regardless, the university has said that either way the issue has dredged up an important lesson, which is that UW has zero tolerance for violence of any kind.

“The fact that the Facebook post apparently was a fabrication does not change the necessity for continued vigilance in reassuring that we have a campus where everyone feels safe,” UW spokesman Chad Baldwin said in a statement. ”It’s important that this event does not undermine the progress that has been made in this area.”

As one Blaze commenter writes “It is not Reality that counts…it’s the seriousness of the charges.”
